Black lawmakers want Obama to do more to create jobs

People in hell want ice water, and the chances are about the same for either one.

Idiots. The GOVERNMENT (and certain Barack Hussein Obama, Hmm Mmmm MMM!) creates no jobs, while the private sector does MILLINOS.

Numbskulls. Sheesh.

When Colin Powell announced he was voting for barry, I knew that blacks vote skin color first and issues 4th. The worst racism of all.

That annoys the heck out of me too. During the Gore/Lieberman campaign, my aunt proudly told me that she was voting for algore because Lieberman was Jewish. I asked her how voting for someone because they were Jewish was any different than voting against them because they were Jewish. And it's every bit as true for race.

He knows he has your votes, come rain or shine. Why should he expend any effort on your behalf?

Bingo! As if they want jobs. They want handouts. He is not worried at all about the black vote. Heck, he might go from from 98% of the black vote down to say....... 97.5%? Whop-d-do.

[Uncle Miltie]

Now this here’s just funny.

Ya can’t get much better than blacks complaining about 0bummer’s Socialism failing to create jobs for them!

[prophetic]

Well didnt they get several BILLIONS in reparations already with much more promised on the way?

I note that when the Mississippi flooded last year and several states were affected I noted that since its mostly white folks were being hurt that no one rose to their aid by calling for a National drive to help the poor devastated people; where was the usual Holly-Weird crowd who just love the easy media attention and where was the usual fund-raisers that usually emerge to help victims of these disasters (though the victims never usually see any of the $$)??

Maxine apparently only cares about blacks. That’s it.

Maxine only cares about Maxine. Her tribe, I mean, caucus, is only concerned for themselves, to the detriment of the other tribes, I mean, people.

[newzjunkey]

You're correct. Any "group" that does not make their votes contestable has no power. Hispanics cannot let themselves fall into the trap.

Democrats don't care about black Americans, only maintaining their dominance over them. They're trying to do the same to hispanics.

Further, Democrats want to take that plantation relationship and expand it to all Americans through ever more intrusive government.

They offer false freedoms (like financial security through dependency) as a cover for the real freedoms they steal (choices in healthcare, food, jobs, lightbulbs and toilets).

[Jack Hammer]

The bottom line is that the government CANNOT create jobs, except in makework nonsense.

The best government can do is get out of the way of the enterprising, de-regulate business, and then let a thriving economy create jobs.

That’s not what these folks mean, though; what they mean is, “Hey, Bro, tax Whitey and gimme a check for doin’ nuthin.”

And THAT is something Obama was supposed to do once elected, but at which he has failed miserably.

[newzjunkey]

Maxine didn't just tell the tea party to go to hell but promised to send them there herself.

That's the new tone of civility. /s

Maxine (the mouth) Waters is a sub-moron who I doubt knows who John Maynard Keynes is and why he is dead in more than the physical sense.

Obama won't create jobs because he CAN'T create jobs. If the trillion we spend (mostly wasted) didn't work, then what does she expect Obama to do. Apparently Waters is as ignorant as she is stupid. She needs to go and read (if she can read) the history of the 1930's and the great Depression to see that unemployment never fell below 10% during the whole decade after 1932. In fact for most of that time it was way above 10%. So with massive efforts by the government to create jobs, it failed miserably.

Maxine Waters IS is the problem. Can you imagine any business wanting to move into a district that has people stupid enough to put a person such as her into public office? Surely her district is a hellout of a major degree. I'll bet it also has an horrific crime rate which scares away business. I lack the words to describe what a wretched creature Maxine Waters is.

She and her co-conspirators have gotten us to hell. The fight now, IMHO, is keeping our grandchildren out.

I don't, but it would get me booted from FR.

The problem with Obama and his fellow entitlement parasites, Maxine Waters especially included, is that they truly don’t know how to create private sector jobs. Any experience they have had with the private sector has been limited to class warfare attacks and using it as a convienient boogeyman worthy of ever more punative taxes, all in the name of fairness and the chilin of course. They have never seen the private sector as a job creator or driver of the economy and they never will, any more than a tapeworm is, or could ever be, capable or even interested in the welfare of the host.

More? I wasn't aware he's done anything.

I guess they are about to learn what counts the most with mac, the crybaby liar daddy:

IT ALL ABOUT HIM, FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS HIM.

Everyone and everything else is just bus fodder to him, nothing more and nothing less.
